What was your first Modification to your 5 ton?
Just as the title says, list out your very first modification to your rig....elaborate if you want to on whether or not it was a good decision.
Mine was the addition of the new alernator and it has been churning out power perfectly for the short time I have owned it.
I would be very interested in small tweaks to existing parts and custom designs that made the truck more perfect....
Since I am still a new Green Iron owner, the list I drew up today has all kinds of crazy items I "Need" to purchase for my truck....the list will probably get bigger after this thread...

This was done on a deuce- all security related. Lock on the fuel tank, door locks, battery and tool box locks.
Then the fun began.

First thing i did on a 5 ton dump truck, mdl m929a1, was cut down the cab - going for the low rider look. Just started this on the first of the month

What did you use to cut the cab down, a wrecking ball?
